I'm surprised that after Canelo becomes an undisputed champion he is planning to have another fight.

This guy does not want to rest, he wants to always continue to be in business and that is by beating fighters, this time still a bigger fighter but not a known name IMO. So maybe he should make it happen, in bigger weights, there's bigger money, so if he could still reign there, that's another big success of Canelo and more praises he'll receive as a fighter.

This guy is really huge, look at is highlights here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF07uecaQvs

That was an amazing comeback by the Warriors, they were down big time but they manage to come back in just one quarter.

Warriors limit the Cavs by 8 points only while they made 36 points in the 4th quarter alone.  
I thought Curry was injured he seems to be having an easy game with 40 points and 9/16 from beyond the arc.
Did you take the live bet when the warriors are down?
3423  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: November 18, 2021, 11:26:14 PM
Tonight we have a few games and I think that Cleveland can mess up Warriors

I really don't think so, I'll be gong with the Warriors here, the spread is at -9.5 and I'll be taking it, Warriors are the big deal right now, and I don't see an undermanned Cavaliers causing much of a trouble.

I also have an eye for the Clippers ML vs Memphis Grizzlies.

True, I don't think that the Cavs can pull a surprised against the Warriors, unless Steph Curry is not playing. But I don't like the -9.5 though, maybe it's a trap, I don't know. Cleveland is also pretty bang up, but they might want to get this game as close as they can.

I like the Toronto vs Jazz, I think the Jazz might pull this one off against the Raptors.
Although the Cavaliers played a back to back game they are at home now, this team are good at home and their defense is good, so yes, that -9.5 could be a trap, maybe we will see an upset here, who knows.

Curry is questionable to play due to a hip injury (new injury).
https://cavaliersnation.com/2021/11/17/warriors-stephen-curry-questionable-to-play-versus-cavs/

They can rest him of course since the warriors without Curry can handle the Cavs, but the spread is too high to cover.

About the Jazz, I doubt they'll cover that -10.5, Raptors is a good team, so again, we might see an upset as it happen to the Jazz against the Heat and Pacers.

I heard about this coin but did not invest.

Though $2 million is just a small amount compared to the money going in and out in crypto but for a scammer to take $2 million, that's already a jackpot. This tells us that there are still newbie investors out there who do not have enough knowledge in crypto but went so aggressive, if they understand the basics, they would not fall for that scam.

I can't believe that volume that time was $11 million _https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/squid-game/
Probably the scammers trying to pump the coin with their money and take the money from those who ride with the FOMO.

Indeed, they are leading 3/4 the ways, until Lillard and CJ hits their outside shooting and you can sense a comeback. Nurkic though taking advantage of the small Bulls lineup, without Vucevic.

Good with by the home court team, lost my bet as well for the Bulls. I thought they are really unstoppable in this game, which they are, specially Lavine and DeRozan, but the TrailBlazers can't be deny this time.
Yeah, this was a tough loss on the Bulls they led for more than 20 points at one point then Blazers picked up some steam in the second half.

I went for the Bulls +3.5 live spread at the start and thought it's already a lock after the half so I stopped watching but good thing I tuned back in around the 4th quarter and cashed out my stake when I saw the Bulls struggle while the Blazers are chucking down back to back threes.

Who would expect the Blazers will come back and win.

The bulls had a good start, they were up with a comfortable lead but I feel they get tired in the 2nd half. Well, you can expect that because they played and beat the LA Lakers and LA Clippers in their previous game, so here they are just a little exhausted.

I thought Lillard was out because he was reported previously as questionable, but good thing he played and he help his team to win. However, I feel if the Bulls have enough rest and they'll play again, the Bulls would not anymore collapse int he 2nd half.

And last night, Curry's huge performance helped the team win the game a lot by 117-99. He scored 37 points.
They have no problem winning that game as they literally demolished the Nets. We might not see games like that in the future so we will never forget this battle between the two greats in the NBA and this would be a wake-up call for Durant and his team to think that the Warriors are a real deal this season.

Maybe it's time for Irving to come out and follow the protocol if he wants to help his team because as I've seen in that game, the Nets will not likely have a decent chance of beating the Warriors if both are lucky to be in the Finals.

Let's also read the statement of Nash about the loss.

I heard a lot of adult coins in the past but I've never seen at least one coin which are successful, so I like to make a conclusions that they are not a good investment. Even the news on the popular coins in the market where they are accepted in a popular pornsites does not make a hype, so it's not really a game changer.

Thank you @Japinat for the tip with the Clippers bet.


Hmm... don't thank me, I did not actually give a tip on that game, I was just posting the spread of the favorites on the games yesterday. My bet was Nets -2.5 and I lose that bet because the Warriors dominated them, probably their worst loss this season, while my first bet was on Jazz and I just ended up the day with a break even record, but I lose a bit due to odds that I got which is only 1.90 for the Jazz.

NFT and other markets will always follow the status of bitcoin, if bitcoin is bullish they are bullish, if not then they'll be bearish.

The hype of the market always starts if bitcoin has a bullish movement.
IIRC, altcoins were not bullish until bitcoin hit its ATH last year breaking the $20k (more less) ATH, and then the bullish run starts or we call an altcoins season for the altcoins market.

What do we have for tomorrow?

Only 3 games are available to bet and we have the following games.

1. Golden State at Brooklyn -2.5
2. Philadelphia at Utah -8.5
3.  San Antonio at L.A. Clippers -6.5

Utah is currently on a 2 losing streak, and Sixers are probably gonna play without Embiid, so is this the right time for the Jazz to break the losing streak?
My 2nd bet is probably on the Nets -2.5 at home.
3431  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 13, 2021, 11:38:16 PM
I didn't know that there was a really great game on TV now which is between Utah Jazz and Miami Heat in Vivint Smart Home Arena. We are in the 2nd quarter now and Miami Heat maintain their lead by a 41-27 score. Utah Jazz have been terrible in the 2nd quarter so far (the current quarter score: 3-14). But considering that both of them started the season strongly, I think that Utah Jazz won't lose home with a big gap. But I don't expect Miami Heat to lose here.
If Utah Jazz will lose, it will be their 2nd straight loss as they also lose againts the Indiana Pacers. This team is good of coming back so I expect them to come back in the 4th quarter but for bettors, that +8 now looks like a winning bet already.

The holder cannot be a winner if he cannot withdraw the funds, it's only on paper but in reality, you cannot get it.

A person who had 1000 BTC would probably need to be careful, he doesn't share his information online as we know how dangerous our life would become if people would know we got that huge BTC. At the current price if it remains untouched that would be over $64 million, so it's not really a billion.

The point here is don't trust all your bitcoin in an exchange, storing there will only give you a problem in the future as they could cheat by locking or freezing the account for fabricated reasons only, remember that not your key, not your wallet.

Obviously it's not for everybody, just like having a job or a business, you only do it based on your skills and passion, without that in you, you'll never be effective in the field you are trying to pursue. Trading is very risky, you are investing in yourself here, so you also have to ensure that you understands what you are doing and you believe that you have the skills to be successful.

........

You are trading and you keep losing, two options for you;

1) Stop trading
    A.) Stop trading and get more skills

You don't do this, you'll only stop if you don't want to get more skills, stopping means quitting or ending your journey in trading.

The amount of BTC stated will not all enter the market, there's maybe a dump because of the FUD but it will only be a temporary dump as there are a lot of investors who still think the current price is cheap so buying wouldn't be a problem.

This is probably the news you are referring to.

^^ Yes, we wanted both Donaire and Casimero to win. And even if Donaire losses this one, at least it will still be a Filipino.

However, I really don't like to see Filipino vs Filipino, might be better if they are going against a different nationality so that it will not be hard to choose and who are we going to support in this fight. Maybe they can talk reunification later if any one of them beat Naoya first.

Not gonna happen for Donaire vs Casimero because they are now under the same promotion, it only happened that Donaire has to fight a Filipino challenger because it's mandatory, if not, for sure Donaire will not choose to fight Reymart Gaballo.

Well, this is business, on the other hand, we also have to be proud that we have Filipino champions in the same weight class that's why we are seeing them fighting each other.
3437  Economy / Economics / Re: Banks will die crypto will take over in 5-10 years on: November 12, 2021, 11:36:22 PM
One of the greatest financial advisers once said that what is old will survive, gold and silver are old and it will survive, so basically since Banks are older than bitcoin or crypto, then it will survive, while on the other hand, crypto is relatively new as bitcoin is not even 15 years old yet, so there's a chance that it will not survive while the bank will remain.

Actually, we can't compare apple to orange because both have a different purpose, banks do centralized transactions while bitcoin or blockchain do decentralized transaction, but what's more powerful are the regulators and that will favor the banks since they can declare bitcoin to be illegal while keep the banking system legal.

I think it's already official, Deron Williams vs Frank Gore will fight on the undercard of Jake Paul's fight.

Quote
The match will be part of the undercard when Jake Paul takes on Tommy Fury on Dec. 18. The Gore-Williams fight is slated for four rounds. Both fighters will fight at 215 pounds.

Just a reminder, don't expect too much on this fight as it's only a four rounds fight, we don't have an idea on how they'll fight in the ring as we have not seen them fight before but KO would be nice to see to spice a bit the main event. By the way, betting odds is also open now.

So far though both teams odds in ML is 1.91, so that's attractive enough.

I'm also with the Boston to win here.

The last game of the Boston Celtics are very impressive, they win by 16 points against the Raptors and that is without Jaylen Brown.
Actually, I like the Celtics in that game as they distributed the ball very well and without Jaylen Brown, they seemed to be doing fine.

I like to give a recap of the boxscore in the last from the Celtics roster, and their top performers are.

Tatum -    22 points
Schroder - 20 points
Williams III - 16 points
Richardson - 15 points
Smart -13 points.

https://www.covers.com/sport/basketball/nba/boxscore/250718

As we can see, that figure showed they share the ball very well and I hope they'll do the same here so they'll have another big victory.
3440  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Terence Crawford vs Shawn Porter - Nov. 20 on: November 12, 2021, 06:09:04 AM
Ok since the fight is very near, I try to look at how much is the PPV ticket:

Quote
Crawford vs. Porter info

Date: Nov. 20
Location: Mandalay Bay  -- Las Vegas
Start time: 9 p.m. ET | Price: $69.99
How to watch: ESPN+ PPV

So it's pegged at $69.99, I think it's $10 cheap as compare to Joshua vs Wilder or Canelo vs Plant fight.

https://www.cbssports.com/boxing/news/terence-crawford-vs-shawn-porter-fight-card-odds-date-ppv-rumors-complete-guide/

And so this is reasonable price, and for sure many are going to buy this one just to watch it at their comfort or with some of their friends having a good time.

The lower the PPV price the more people can afford to buy, hopefully, they'll be able to sell a good number of PPV so they'll be profitable in this fight. Porter vs Crawford is such a great fight, it will never be boring so it's good if we book a subscription and watch it together with our friends and family.

As to betting, that is always depending on what we think and on how this find will end up, of course with the fighter of your choice.

That's low in USA and other countries where the hourly rate is around $10 to $15 USD, I'm sure they can afford that but for countries that are struggling right now due to the pandemic, that's a big amount already and that's why I'm thankful if someone would give a free stream in Facebook although are some advertisements from the streamings, at least it's free.

If you want to enjoy it without interruption, then probably buy the PPV, however, I think it's not available in all countries? correct me if I'm wrong.
